DoD Ch. 4

     Brooks starts off with a story about the construction of the Comanche helicopter, and its high standards.  He then writes about how many wishes and requirements are common of a design, but usually these desires aren't possibly to reach.  Then he goes on about how requirements change while design choices are made.  He also mentions a Requirements Traceability Matrix that keeps tracks of requirements.  Next Brooks talks about how the world is controlled by "pride, greed, and sloth," which is fairly obvious. For this reason the world needs contracts, which Brooks writes about next.  The last few pages describe the ideal model for a contract and also how relations work among contracted clientele.
